Pollinators on Cowpea Vigna unguiculata: Implications for Intercropping to Enhance Biodiversity

Beatrice N. Dingha et al.

Summary: The study showed that cowpeas can increase resources for pollinators and improve pollinator abundance and diversity. Different cowpea varieties significantly influenced the number of pollinators, and various sampling methods affected the distribution of pollinators.
